                        to better understand the rate of the team's progress. For example, you can find
                        answers to the following questions:</p>
                    <ul>
                        <li>
                            <p>Did the scope of work for each iteration closely match the team capacity?</p>

                        <li>
                            <p>Does the number of use cases closed in each iteration correspond to your expectations?

                        <li>
                            <p>Is the team resolving and closing more bugs with successive iterations? </p>

                                an iteration, it indicates that the team is well positioned to progress at a known
